Zecora pre-order!, Target clearance

[StoryDreamer]

Dang it! I was waiting till I got home with the groceries to get her.

Wow! Zecora was a fast seller for them...or perhaps TRU only had a limited number up for the pre order.

As for why the Favourites set has vanished...I would not be amazed if it has been taken down due to the BOGOF deal at the moment. Retailers are pretty saavy - if suddenly hundreds of orders for 2 sets of the same item are firing through their system [which I would guess from the amount of people I have read saying did this may be the case]...they may simply have "removed" the set temporarily from the site. BOGOF is to attract people to the store and for the sale of items which people may not have been convinced on before and need an encouragement to purchase...the sale is not designed to sell out of items which were going to be hot sellers anyway. I will not be amazed if the set pops back up a week or so after the offer ends.

Why are are all of these wonderful things coming when I don't have the monies? First the Collector's set, then SDCC Pony, then the wedding ponies, and now Zecora! I must return to the summer job hunt...

The thing is, I think it was limited to one per person and besides, I noticed that some MLP items don't qualify for the BOGOF sale, so all they had to do was exclude it from the sale. My theory is that it sold out just as Zecora did.

The Favourites set wasnt limited to one per person at the time - it was possible to purchase 2 boxes of it and a lot of people have done this.

It may very well have sold out rather than being a removal from site for other reasons - its all speculation until we either see the set appearing again or never appearing again. For a pre order which is supposed to actually get on to shelves, selling out of a pre order would be both worrying and odd. Zecora is a slightly different concept because they are selling her as a Comic Con exclusive at the moment - so perhaps its just that her box at CC is different from her store box.

oh man, I didn't even get a chance to wonder if I should pre order now or later.    I really hope her and the collectors set show up again.

[Phekzhen]

gdi I waited to order Zecora and now they took her down since everyone ordered her up |:<

[Folly]

UGH REALLY??  I didn't think she would be limited to so few orders- bummer!  Well... hopefully I can buy her later.  Maybe the preorder thing was special for SDCC.  I was holding out for the collectors set until I got paid this weekend and that dissappeared, I should have known better.... bummed.

[Eternia]

whhhhat?! already? that's crazy! :o so glad I ordered her right away, and got my favorite set BOGO when it was there!
ETA
I paid with paypal, and I see no pending charges on my bank account? or are the pending charges only for debit/credit cards?
nevermind, it's listed as pending when I log into paypal 

[xeevee]

Hopefully she has also been taken down for BOGO. Normally they just put sold out on their right?  Not remove the post entirely.  My first thought when I saw this thread was that I was going to BOGO her and the collectors set.  Fingers crossed anyway.

[Gonzo]

Dangit, I came to the thread too late! D:

I hope I'll still be able to find her in stores later...

[dxgirly]

She was never available as part of the BOGO offer

[Marigold]

I hope someone takes a picture of the AT SDCC Zecora box vs the online store SDCC Zecora.  I'd like to see if there is a difference. 

She really did sell out fast. 

[Lorelei Redfern]

this is proably sut the  online preorder. she'll praobly be availbe in stores. no need to  buy the imflated priced ones on ebay. yet

[scarletjul]

Wow.  That was fast.

I missed it.  I don't have access to the Internet at work so. . .  Oh well.  Hopefully, she'll pop up again.
